Prime Minister Narendra Modi concluded his two-day visit to Israel on Thursday after holding wide-ranging talks with Israeli leaders, meeting the Indian-origin Jewish community, and visiting sites of historical and cultural significance. With Netanyahu, Modi focused on defence, security, trade, technology, and agriculture, while also discussing the prevailing situation in the Middle East. Following the talks, India and Israel inked agreements on civil and nuclear energy, agreed to expand their defence partnership, and decided to work towards a free trade deal. HR manager Isaac Thangjon, born in Manipur, said, “The visit of Prime Minister Modi is nothing short of 'great'. The prime minister met the cast and crew of the Israeli espionage show "Fauda" and shared a selfie on social media.
